Not finding the metadata window (F12) when using Resharper

When I hit F12 (or right-click and select Go To Definition) in Visual Studio on code I don't have the source for, it should bring up a generated metadata file. (Very similar to the Code Definition Window)

This doesn't work when ReSharper (R#) is installed. After R# is installed, the Object Browser opens instead.

I've had this problem on several fresh installed computers, and at least since R# 3. (You'll see this works again when you disable R# and restart VS)

How can I get to the metadataview now?

You can change ReSharper's F12 action by going to ReSharper -> Options... -> Tools -> External Sources and changing the order and selection of the External source data providers.
